Bereik en inhoud
Item is a wooden handheld Holmes style stereoscope. Handle bends back onto viewer. Hood of viewer is lined with red velvet. This object was used to view two nearly identical photographs, or stereographs, as one three dimensional image. The stereograph would be placed in the sliding card holder and adjusted to fit the user's vision until the two images overlap to mimic a three-dimensional effect.
